Dry Skin?
-
I just prick the 3V Caps with a pin and squeeze out the liquid into the food… doesn't have much of a taste.
Snorky998 brings up a good point about changing the diet and a good reason to vary your dogs food... It is hard on the elders to change the diet as they age... I went through that with my elders.... So, by changing their food (or rotating), I think it makes it easier and keeps their interest in eating when they really get old...
Pat, how often do you rotate food?

Well i've noticed so far that the fish oil has made a difference. I see far less flaking of his skin and he isn't scratching as much. His coat also seems to be much better. He still has some dry spots but they are improving. So far so good.
Glad it is working. Wait 'til you see how soft his coat gets from fish oil. I call Ruby the "mink basenji" :D and even Brando, who has a much coarser coat normally, now has a velvet coat.

Well the fish oil has been working, although he has a few patches that seem very thinned out. Mainly on his sides near is legs. Is this normal while they are blowing their coat? The skin doesn't seem irritated but his coat in those areas is very rough. Just want to make sure it's nothing that needs attention by a vet.

Just received our 3V Caps and I hope they help. Thanks Tanza!
Hope they work for you… I have always thought that they did... and cheap enough...
Of course with these old kids... it is difficult sometimes to see changes.... but can't hurt.....
Let me know how it goes...

Stella has very short hair, and she is flaky a lot (in more ways than one!!) Do you need a prescription for the omega3 or fish oil? Or can you just the human equivalent at cvs?

Human equivalent is fine to use
